Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in Brockley Hill
Can you come to a school fair in Brockley Hill?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
What’s the nearest station to Brockley Hill?
Elstree & Borehamwood station, about 1.8 miles north-east of the centre.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your event and we will send a quote.
What can visitors choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your visitors, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can the van come to Brockley Hill?
We do. We serve events in Brockley Hill and across Greater London. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
The process
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we are hot, we cook to order, timed around your event. In Brockley Hill, a midsummer event stays light until about 9:20pm, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm.
- It starts with your event and pitch details.
- We confirm the date, what we need on the pitch and any documents.
- On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.
- We cook fresh and serve through the day.
- At the end, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Share the timings for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
Getting a price
Still finalising the details? That is fine: tell us the basics about your event, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
One good hot-food van can be enough at a smaller event. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

Before you choose a spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- Somewhere firm if it rains
- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
- Space for a queue away from paths
Brockley Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of where the van would go
- The venue or postcode
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
